Reinstall engine
« on: 02 April 2013, 11:07:41 am »
I've had the engine out of the bike for a few months over the winter giving it and part of the frame a bit of a spray paint.
When i was taking it out it was a bit of a bitch to get out and i marked the bottom of the frame doing so as its an unbelivably tight fit.
Anyone any tips on the best way to get it back in?
I took it out from the throttle side of the bike.

loads of rags over the frame,
It only goes in and out from the right.

Take front sprocket off to avoid catching.

Be strong and use the force, or a trolley jack.

Would anyone be able to do me a big faviour? Would you be able to take a few pics of all the engine mounting bolts you can on both sides of each bolt you can see and send me the pics.
Im trying to get my engine back in today, but i cant remember which bolt & washers etc goes where. Thought it would be simple enough just looking at it and i have a proper manual but its not the best. :'(
Thanks a million.
